Rich and creamy, this chicken pot pie soup has all of the flavors of a fresh baked pot pie. Best of all it is low carb and gluten free.
Ingredients
- olive oil
- celery
- carrots
- chicken
- garlic
- sea salt
- thyme
- onion powder
- black pepper
- chicken stock
- heavy cream
- sharp cheddar cheese
- frozen peas
Serving suggestions
For more of a true chicken pot pie feel, I like to serve this with a batch of keto biscuits or crackers. Here are some of my favorite recipes - Keto Cheddar Dill Biscuits, Cheddar Jalapeno Bacon Biscuits, White Cheddar Sausage Biscuits, Parmesan Chive, and Garlic Crackers, Rosemary and Thyme Crackers
Of course, if you wanted to go a more traditional route, while still keeping things low carb, I have a recipe for that too - Keto Chicken Pot Pie
How to convert for slow cooker
Converting this Chicken Pot Pie Soup recipe to slow cooker couldn't be any easier. Simply add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on high for 5 hours or low for 8 hours. If you are home and have the time, I recommend waiting to add the cheese and heavy cream until the final hour.
Substitutions and Swaps
- Want to lower the carbs even further? Substitute the carrots and peas with lower carb vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, cabbage, bell peppers, or onions.
- Need to make this dairy free? Omit the cheese and substitute the heavy cream with full fat coconut milk.
- Use turkey in place of chicken. You can also use ground chicken, ground turkey, or even ground beef. I get all of my grass-fed, grass finished beef, heritage pork, organic chicken and sustainable seafood here

What a great soup!
My husband has developed allergies to just about everything tasty and one of his favourite meals was chicken pot pie. I made this last night and now he wants this every week. It tasted so much like the real deal and there wasn't any sneezing or coughing afterwards. Bonus!
Thank you Kyndra!

This soup is SO good. My husband and I love it and have made it several times. The seasonings are perfect, and it's also delicious if you substitute herbs de provence for the Italian seasoning. Delicious!!
